The plaque bearing the names of Quebec firefighters who died in the line of duty was recently updated. Set at the base of the monument inaugurated in 2013<\/a>, this plaque carries deep meaning: it reminds us that behind every name is a story of dedication, a family forever changed, and a community that will never forget.<\/p>\n

The growing number of names on the plaque is a powerful reminder of just how demanding and dangerous this profession can be. Beyond the risks inherent to daily emergency response, firefighters face other, more insidious threats. A 2022 study by the International Agency for Research on Cancer found that firefighters are 9% more likely to be diagnosed with cancer and 14% more likely to die from it than the general population. At the same time, the number of cancers recognized as occupational diseases in Quebec remains lower than in other Canadian provinces.<\/p>\n

If you happen to be in the area, we encourage you to stop and take a moment to see the updated plaque. It is a small but meaningful way to show respect for those who gave so much in service to their community.<\/p>\n
